    Nice footage Phil. Brought a tear to the eye -- the bridge in the background is where I used to 'spot' from as a kid!

    Had a superb day out. Some late running, outward die to being put behind stopper down the Calder Valley and just knock on effect thereafter. Arrived two minutes early into Scarborough. On time departure on the return, lost time at Milford waterstop so a late arrival into Brighouse. Would like to thank RTC, WCRC and PMRT for a great day out. 46233 performed as expected, 100% LMS!
    60009 next week....

    Today's lineside rumour mill has it as 60009, despite other previous thread statements of it being banned twixt York and Scarborough.

    Neil, was informed by our rtc steward last week that 60009 was booked for this week's flyer. However a week is a long time in this game!
